תספורת, גילוח הזקן, בימי
הספירה
שלא להסתפר בימי הספירה
פשט
המנהג שלא להסתפר בימי ספירת העומר, למנהג האשכנזים עד יום ל”ג לעומר, ולמנהג הספרדים עד יום
ל”ד לעומר בבוקר. (וכפי שנתבאר לעניין נישואין בימי הספירה). ויש מהספרדים
שמיקלים לענין תספורת כמנהג האשכנזים, שבל”ג לעומר כבר מסתפרים, והמיקלים בזה
(אף מבני עדות המזרח), יש להם על מה שיסמוכו.
גילוח
הזקן
החרדים
לדבר ה' נזהרים בענין תספורת בימי הספירה אף לענין גילוח הזקן, אלא שיש מיקלים בזה
למי שמצטער הרבה כשאינו מגלח זקנו, משום שכתב הרדב”ז שבענין כזה שאינו בתורת
חובה ממש מתקנת חכמים, אלא מנהג בלבד, כל שיש צער כזה יש להקל. אולם ראוי מאוד
להחזיק במנהג זה שנהגו בו אבותינו משנים קדמוניות, שלא לגלח את הזקן בימי הספירה, (ובפרט יש להחמיר בזה
עד ראש חודש אייר).
דין
הנשים במנהג זה
נשים, אינן בכלל האיסור לענין
תספורת בימי הספירה, שהרי אף לענין אבלות ממש על אחד מהקרובים שנפטר, (שלאיש אבל
אסור להסתפר כל שלשים יום של אבלותו) פסק מרן השלחן ערוך שנשים אינן בכלל איסור זה
ומותרות בתספורת תוך שלשים יום. ואם כן
כל שכן לענין מנהג האבלות בימי ספירת העומר, שאשה אינה צריכה להזהר שלא להסתפר.
והוא הדין גם כן לענין ימי בין המצרים מאחרי שבעה עשר בתמוז, שאיסור התספורת שייך באנשים בלבד, אבל נשים מותרות
להסתפר.
Taking Haircuts and Shaving during the Omer Period
Haircuts during the Omer
during the Omer counting period: According to the Ashkenazi custom, until the
33rd day of the Omer and according to the Sephardic custom, until
the morning of the 34th day of the Omer (as we have already
explained regarding getting married during the Omer). Some Sephardic
individuals act leniently with regards to haircuts in accordance with the
Ashkenazi custom, i.e. taking haircuts beginning from the 33rd day
of the Omer. Those who act leniently in this regard (even Sephardic
individuals) have on whom to rely.
during the Omer period as well. However, there are those who rule leniently for
individuals who are truly distressed as a result of not shaving their beard,
for the Radbaz writes regarding such matters which are not actual obligations
as a result of an edict of our Sages and is merely a custom, in a case of such
distress, there is room for leniency. Nevertheless, it is indeed correct and
proper to follow this custom which was observed by our ancestors for many generations
with regards to refraining from shaving one’s beard during the Omer period (it
is especially worthy to be stringent until Rosh Chodesh Iyar).
the Omer, for even with regards to actual mourning for a relative who has
passed away (for which a male mourner must abstain from taking a haircut for
the entire thirty-day mourning period), Maran HaShulchan Aruch rules that women
are not included in this prohibition and are permitted to take haircuts during
the thirty-day mourning period. If so, this would certainly apply to the
mourning customs observed during the Omer period in that a woman need not
abstain from taking a haircut. The same would apply to the three week period
between the Seventeenth of Tammuz and the Ninth of Av that the prohibition to
take haircuts applies to men alone, however, women are permitted to take
haircuts.
